Can we just think about question 14 and 16.... They make no sense.... Or with that logic I guess I should be saying, Them make no sense. *eye roll*
I feel like 14 should be 'him' it would sound so much better.
And 16 should be 'their', it would just make sense that way, but no, why would English ever want to make sense?
:P Is still correct as of 1/26/2023
Yeeeeesssiirrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
:P is correct 2022!!! :D

You are correct. It makes absolutely no sense why gender-neutral pronouns aren't normal anymore like they were in the 15-1700s. Not only is it more inclusive, but it is also just.. well, easier. No need to worry about two separate main pronoun groups, (She her, He him) but just one instead (They, Them, Theirs.)
